Notes on Attire

Attire for all days is business casual. We work hard to have a comfortable room temperature in all meeting locations, but “comfortable” is different for everyone. We recommend layers or bringing a light sweater or jacket just in case.

Meals and Snacks

A light breakfast will be provided for those who RSVP through the attendance survey. Morning and afternoon snacks, lunch, and beverages will be provided each day.
